Student voice is key at 蜜桃女孩 so this year we have introduced even more leadership opportunities at the College.

Our inaugural Middle School House Captains will assist to provide student voice and agency for our junior students in Years 7 to 9, while building leadership capacity in our middle years students as they edge closer to their senior years.

We caught up with a few of our Middle School House Captains to find out more on why they applied for the role and what they hope to bring to the table in this position.

Biyala

Isi Fotu, Ovens House

I wanted to become Middle House School Captain because I wanted to be a role model for other year levels.
I would like to show others how to not just behave, but also to step up to these types of opportunities.
In the past I have had leadership roles such as School Captain and Captain of rugby and basketball teams. In the future, I do wish to be College Captain as some of them have inspired me to do so.

Omar Abuhassan, Murray House

The reason I wanted to become House Captain is because I want to become a better role model for the upcoming future leaders and younger audience. As a new Middle School House Captain, I want to achieve better leadership skills and learn new things as a leader, and I would love to participate in upcoming activities.

When I was in Year 3, I was a soccer captain for my team. I always helped out my coach and I used to lead my teammates in other positions. I really hope I get senior House Captain in the future because I really like the role I have now, and it brings a good character out of me. I know for sure that senior house captain will be a fantastic role for me and I鈥檓 grateful for this opportunity.

Jedidiah Chakabuda, Murray House

I decided to nominate to become a Middle School House Captain because I thought it would be an opportunity for me to experience, explore and do new things which I may have not done before. I thought it would also be a chance for me to improve my public speech skills, but in an environment with majority of the people being in my age group.

I would like to learn better leadership skills and be able to achieve being an exemplary role model in the school. I hope to contribute to making the school environment a fun and safe place for my peers to feel wanted and to enjoy their time, but also focus on their work, as work is an important part of not only school, but life in general.

I definitely hope to have a leadership role in my senior years, whether it be in this school or anywhere else.

Dharnya

Hary Ganesan, Campaspe House

The reason I decided to nominate as Middle School House Captain is because I hope to get more experience in leadership and how to manage time and pressure for the coming years.

I want to improve my public speaking and confidence, and how to deal with and understand others since I believe it's a crucial skill to have in life.

I have held other leadership roles in my primary school - I was a School Captain at St George鈥檚 Road Primary School and I helped to lead the Year 7 transitions around the school last year. I鈥檓 aiming to get a leadership role in my senior years.

I like adventure and finding out new things and I believe that leadership roles will grant that.

Lily-Ann O鈥橞rien, Goulburn House

I decided to nominate to become a Middle School House Captain because I've always loved helping kids and helping out at school. 

Through this role, I hope to learn how to be a better leader and work with the different house leaders in the school to share ideas to make school better.

This my first leadership role and I hope to go for other leadership roles in senior years. 

Bayuna

Ellie Robinson, Murrumbidgee House

I decided to nominate to become a Middle School House Captain because it鈥檚 a fantastic chance for me to develop my leadership skills, get to know different students and teachers and represent my school. It鈥檚 also an opportunity for me to push myself out of my comfort zone.

Throughout my time as House Captain, I am hoping to learn more about my school, the people at my school and myself.

My past leadership experiences include being a Student Voice Leader in Grade 4 and a Student Leader in Grade 6 at my primary school, Guthrie Street. I would absolutely love the chance to do some sort of leadership role in my senior years.

Last Wednesday, 蜜桃女孩 hosted a Family Information Evening for our prospective Year 7 students and their families looking to enrol in 2025. If you were unable to attend the event, you can watch a recording from the video here: 

Our student leaders hosted a series of tours around our neighbourhoods, showcasing our top-class facilities and learning spaces and outlining the extensive supports in place to support students from our wellbeing and allied health services to our Ngarri Ngarri and Multicultural Liaison Officer teams.

On the night, we showed a video where a group of current Year 7 students were interviewed about their experiences at 蜜桃女孩 and how they have found their transition into secondary education.

Due to the size of the school, we asked students whether they have had trouble finding their way around the campus.

鈥淚t was a lot easier than I expected,鈥 Havana Coady said.

鈥淎t the start yes, but then I got used to it,鈥 Maddison Robinson said.

鈥淣o because there are a lot of people that are willing to help you around,鈥 Kaiden Bennett said.

The students said they have a range of strategies for finding their classes including asking friends for assistance when needed, keeping a timetable in their locker and checking on Compass.

The students also said there is great support in place when help is needed, including via teachers and Education Support staff, such as the Neighbourhood Assistants located at each House entrance.

During the interview, we asked the students what they like to do outside of the classroom and what they have enjoyed most about high school.

鈥淚 sit around and talk with my friends,鈥 Tiffany Milne said.

鈥淚 catch up with my friends in other buildings,鈥 Mya Nean said.

鈥淭here鈥檚 more learning opportunities,鈥 Kaiden said.
